Mt Faraday

THE ASCENT OF MT FARADAY

This shows the first ascent of the north face of Mt Faraday in Antarctica. We proposed the name Mt Faraday for this peak, which was previously mis-named Mt Shackleton (which is actually several miles away), to commemorate the former British base where the ozone hole was discovered. This name has just been officially accepted. Filmed during the 2010 Alpine Club Antarctic Expedition. View additional expedition images in Latest Images. View the full expedition report.
